Sommario/riassunto

This e-book is the first of two issues that JOCM has devoted to the topic of discourse and organizational change. The five papers are all empirical studies and utilise a variety of discourse analytic perspectives



and methodologies. The issue concludes by discussing the potential for future discursive studies of organizational change phenomena and the implications of this for the field of organizational change more generally.
